If my wife claims CSA how does that affect my payments?

I am currently seperated from my wife and have been for approximately 7 months. I have a daughter of 22 months. I have been paying voluntary payments of 150 pound to my wife since we seperated.

I am paying for bills that we both are liable for although there are a few soley in my name i.e Car, furniture.

I am also responsible for for paying the mortgage and repairs and the house we have a joint mortgage for although the house is now rented out and my wife lives in a seperate rented house. Although she has cut her self off from the house.

I still pay her car insurance and also gas and elecric bills that were left from the house.

I was originally going to pay her a voluntary payment of 250 but i cut this down to take in account the insurance and gas/ electric bills i pay. I am correct to do this?

Also if my wife puts a CSA claim in how does this affect me and the payments i already make?

Also how could i sort payments through the CSA so im am not making the payments directly too her?

I am a serving sgt in the Army would the CSA go straight through my chain of command or would they deal with me direct?

Keith,

~ Does the rental income generated from the property not cover such?

Joint debts/debts from the relationship may get taken into consideration by the CSA if they meet the criteria.
Loans may only count if they are from a qualified lender, or from a current or former employer.
